Flax seed oil is the most potent known source of alpha-linolenic acid,
an essential omega-3 fatty acid. It is extracted from organically grown flax
seeds using a special cold-pressing process, which minimizes the damaging
effects of light, oxygen and heat. Flax seed oil is also rich in the omega-6
essential fatty acid, linoleic acid, as well as the omega-9 essential fatty
acid, oleic acid. With a total EFA content greater than 70%, and a total
unsaturation of greater than 90%, this is a cost-effective source of omega-3,
omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids. Essential fatty acids are involved in
prostaglandin synthesis, hormone production, immune response, fat metabolism,
and cell membrane integrity and fluidity.

Suggested use: As a dietary supplement, up to 2 tablespoons
daily, preferably with meals. Suitable as a salad oil. Not for use in frying.
Refrigerate after opening.
